Thinks North Dakota Will Be Against Taft or Roosevelt

A letter written by W. 3‘. Anderson, dhief clerk in the office of the secretary of state of North Dakota, under date of June 15th, renewing his subscription, has reached us. Mr. Anderson is a brother-in-law of Charles Morion of this city, and waq for some years engaged in the newspaper business at Rugby, N. Dak. He sent $3 to renew his subscription and wrote: “Having been in the newspaper business I know full well how favorably the paid-in-advan'ce subscribers are considered and I want to practice the Golden Rule.” Mr. Anderson says that his family are well, crops are good, never better for this time of year. He says: “This western part of the state can stand a lot of moisture and we have had a lot of it. It has rained nearly every night during the past week.” The Chicago Convention was just opening up the day that Mr. Anderson wrote and he remarks that Teddy has just gone to Chicago to see that bishat remains in the ring. He says that if Teddy is nominated against Bryan, he can easily imagine Bryan the next president, and adds that the same will apply with Taft as the nominee, judged front the North Dakota sentiment Although Mr. Anderson is a republican, he is in a state that liked the LaFollette brand of insurgency and he doubtless speaks the sentiment of most republicans of the state when he says that neither Taft or Roosevelt could carry the state against Bryan.
